Black fusion crust covers most of the exterior. Areas not covered by fusion crust have a brownish color. Many chondrules (the largest is 5 mm in diameter) are visible. Bluish-gray matrix with white and dark gray inclusions as large as 1 mm make up the interior of this extremely fresh appearing stone. Little metal is obvious.
